Shurflo Comfort Air 275-3331 Operating instructions

  • Hello! I've reviewed the SHURflo Comfort Air Fan Installation and Operation Manual for models 275-3330 and 275-3331. This manual provides detailed instructions on installation, operation, and maintenance of the fan, which includes features such as variable speed, remote control, automatic rain sensor, and motorized dome. I'm ready to answer your questions about this fan.
  • What is the required power for the fan?
    What size fuse should be used?
    Can I operate the fan without the screen?
    How do I reset the remote?
Thank you for purchasing this fan from SHURflo. Please take a few minutes to read this entire manual before attempting
installation. If you have any questions, please contact your nearest dealer or SHURflo. This unit will work at an infinite
range of speeds in automatic or manual modes at a wide range of temperature settings. Automatic dome-sensing control
allows it to work with most vent covers. Automatic shut-off when it’s raining and motor thermal protection are just a couple
of the exciting safety features of this fan.
